Few rumbles continue early this evening with patchy fog tonight
Tonight features mostly cloudy skies with a few scattered showers and storms, mainly before midnight. Though our severe weather threat overall is very low, cold air in the mid-levels of our atmosphere will make it a little easier for small hail to develop in any storm that grows vertically, so an isolated hail threat will continue with any showers that develop. Showers will diminish after midnight with patchy fog developing toward dawn as temperatures dip back into the mid 40s with a light southwest breeze.
Tuesday provides more sunshine and drier conditions than Sunday and Monday despite our lingering upper level low spinning nearby. That low will gradually move north, taking the bulk of its associated showers with it. Although an isolated shower can't be ruled out in our northern counties, most of us should remain dry with temperatures a little cooler for this time of year, with highs in the low 60s. Partly to mostly sunny skies during the afternoon will translate to partly clear skies overnight, which is good news for stargazers as the Eta Aquarids meteor shower peaks during the overnight into early Wednesday. As many as thirty meteors can be seen per hour – meteors will radiate from Aquarius but can be seen anywhere in the sky!
Wednesday provides plenty of sunshine with a weak area of high pressure scooting in out ahead of our next system. High temperatures will return to close to normal for this time of year near seventy degrees.
Thursday presents another opportunity for scattered showers with a low pressure system scooting in from the south. This will bring showers into the region, especially for the afternoon. Severe weather is not expected, with highs in the low 70s.
Friday sees that low pressure system exit off to our northeast into New England. After a few morning sprinkles, we will see the sunshine return for the afternoon in what will be the beginning of a fantastic Mother's Day weekend with highs in the mid 60s.
Mother's Day Sweepstakes
Saturday will provide plenty of sunshine with high pressure in control. High pressure will be to our north, meaning we will have a light northerly breeze keeping us cool with highs in the mid 60s.
Mother's Day will be beautiful! High pressure continues to provide plenty of sunshine and temperatures will nudge their way up a bit more to around 70 degrees. The weather will be great to take mom out somewhere and show appreciation!
75 (great) Mother's Day gifts
Tuesday continues the beautiful weather! With a small uptick and heat and humidity, an isolated mountain sprinkle can't be ruled out. Most are dry with plenty of sunshine and highs in the mid 70s.
Looking ahead in your extended forecast, a couple of systems will provide chances for light rain, one on Wednesday and another on Friday. The latter of those two systems looks to be the beginning of an active stretch of weather expected the week before Memorial Day. High temperatures will remain in the 70s.

When is the summer solstice 2025? What to know about the longest day of the year
With the cool temperatures and rain in the region over Memorial Day weekend, it seems like summer weather will never reach Connecticut. But it's much closer than it seems, with the summer season right around the corner, which kicks off with the summer solstice. The summer solstice is when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky for the year, and marks the beginning of summer. It is the longest day of the year, with the most daylight. "The summer solstice occurs at the moment the earth's tilt toward the sun is at a maximum," according to the National Weather Service website. "Therefore, on the day of the summer solstice, the sun appears at its highest elevation with a noontime position that changes very little for several days before and after the summer solstice." It will occur this year on June 20, 2025. It begins with the summer solstice on June 20. The summer solstice is not on the same day every year. "The solstices also do not land on the same calendar day every year because the astronomical year is 365.25 days long," according to the website. "As such, the summer solstice for the Northern Hemisphere — also known as the June solstice — currently shifts between June 20, 21 and 22." Conversely, the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere happens on Dec. 21 or 22 each year. The National Weather Service is predicting another hot summer in the northeast this year. The NWS three-month outlook, issued April 17, shows that temperatures in New England are likely to be 50-60% above normal in May, June and July of 2025. Precipitation in the Northeast is also expected to be slightly above normal by about 35-40%. The Farmer's Almanac also predicted above average temperatures in the Northeast this summer. In New England, "broiling" heat is in the forecast. "Heat will be in full force by July, with much of the nation sweltering with above- to high-above average temperatures," the forecast says. However, it predicts 'average precipitation' for the region. Katie Landeck contributed to this report. This article originally appeared on The Providence Journal: When is the summer solstice 2025?

FEMA teams in the Ozarks survey Memorial Day storm damage
MISSOURI — FEMA teams are in the Ozarks this week, survey damage reports from Memorial Day weekend storms and flooding. 'They are going through the five impacted counties from the May 23 through May 26 storms, and they're looking at damage to public infrastructure, roadways, if there's public buildings or any public utilities that might have been damaged from those storms,' Ryan Lowry-Lee with FEMA said. OzarksFirst shadowed the FEMA team in Dade County and spoke to Presiding Commissioner Kim Kinder about the damage that remains. 'When we have major flooding because it is the Sac River it's connected to Stockon Lake, so if it's flooded, at Stockton Lake, they let water out and stuff, it all rises. So we've had to deal with that in the past and they can take out the whole road there. It has in the past. It's quite a bit and it's causing people to have to drive an extra 5 to 10 miles around, you know, to get to their work and stuff like that.' Lowry-Lee says their teams are looking at public assistance, not for damage done on private property. 'The state's requested it as damage assessments just for the public assistance, which is those public infrastructure pieces,' Lowry-Lee said. 'What happens after a storm like this if the state determines that there's damage and that's damage to public infrastructure, that they could submit a request for a disaster declaration, we link up with them, do the damage assessment.' Kinder believes Dade County has certainly met its threshold. 'We're a rural county. We're kind of a poor county and with the amount of damages and stuff that we've had, our current threshold to meet for a FEMA project is around $33,000. We're estimating now over $200,000 that we've had, so that's a big impact to our budget here in the county since our road budget isn't that huge.' 'When a disaster declaration is approved for public assistance, there is no set dollar amount that it's approved for. There's generally a cost share involved. So it's generally 75% federal and 25% local and state concessionaire. So again, it just depends on what those damages are. As the state puts together those projects and begins to make repairs to address those damages, it's a reimbursement on the public assistance side,' Lowry-Lee said. Kinder says she's hoping the roads will be back to normal soon. 'We are rural. There's not a million people that live on the road, but every person counts here in Dade County, so we try to get it together as quickly as we can,' Kinder said. FEMA teams were also in Ozark County on Tuesday, and teams are expected to be in Douglas, Webster and Vernon counties throughout later this week. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
